Age poll

[caiusbackup]

Since 11 of you said 'yes' and the other one said 'maybe', I present the AGE POLL! It's designed for DC fans and characters, but with a certain amount of interpretation could be applied to other fannish obsessions you might have...

My two favorites are Ollie and J'onn. I mean, I love everyone else but those two are my favorites. I wonder if that's the same as being fannish about them?

*puzzles* It's too late for this.

Though I answered early to mid twenties, I am actually 19. I just feel closer to 20 than I do to say, 14. *shrugs*

I've always read the teen charactes I'm fannish about (especially Tim Drake and the YJ/TT crew) as being a few years older than they are in canon. In some sense I've let them age along with me, but now that I am only scant months away from my twenties and my favorite character has just gotten his driver's license in canon I've fixed their ages in my head to about 16/17. It's weird, though, to think of them at that age, because my brother will soon be turning 16 and that seems so *young* to me. So maybe aging them a little bit helps alieviate any of the guilt I feel when reading smut involving them, because I know I'm not comfortable with my brother doing any of those things (he's too young! I'm old! Gah, where hath my youth gone?!)

That's a hard one. I mean, how old is Ollie? He was about 45, but now he's younger and *ow*.

i do like that 'supernatural' is an option for MY age.

I AM AN ELF OF ETERNAL YOUTH.

Once again, being exactly 35 sucks for polling purposes. It's almost enough to give a girl a complex. ;)
